looks a bit taller than them - is it home made?


Nah its the one of fleabay. Much better than the one I made earlier!!! Could do with a little "finishing" like rounding of the corners of the ground plate but thats just being fussy!! Easy to run the cable through door and to the front too.
 
Do you get a good earth from it?


Yes you do, it comes primed but just get a dremmel on it and grind the primer off where the earth ring goes and excellent reception. Im in Cardiff and can sometimes pick up Bridgwater/Western Supermare etc Ive never had a problem with it
 
So had a bit of free time so I figured I would have a crack at fitting the nudge bar I got off eBay, I will be honest it was a right pain in the arse, had to remove the front bumper, make up some brackets from some old steel i had lying around, drill holes in the front bar to mount them, re position the number plate as it did not sit right but got there in the end, now I have to take it all apart and get the nudge bar painted.

A shot of the brackets,

And the nudge bar in position

Sanded down the old nudgebar this morning and gave it it's first coat of paint, think i will need around 2-3 coats for a nice finish. Looks a million times better with just one coat.

Had some bits arrive in the post today, seat covers from eBay, very happy with the quality and they fit well.....

And the cb ariel mount also from eBay, again very happy with the quality, and sits high enough that it won't catch when I switch the tyres to bf goodrich.
